Twilight



Today I started Twilight! It was recommended by 20 students, definitely a popular book! The first few paragraphs of the preface have drawn me in.

A Series of Unfortunate Events


I finished the book A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Bad Beginning in one day. It was an easy read and an amusing story. I recommend it to anyone before they see the movie. Thanks for the recommendation, Abbie S.!

The Lightning Thief

Hello!

Hope you all are enjoying February vacation!

Thanks to Izzie for recommending The Named. I enjoyed the fantasy elements of the book. I have never read a story that was told in first person by two different people. It definitely makes the story interesting. I would pass along the recommendation. Mrs. Ross has a copy of the book and the two other stories in the trilogy.

I am currently reading The Lightning Thief which came with a strong recommendation from Jamie. I can't put it down! If you haven't read this book, I strongly urge you to give it a try! It is a fun and creative way to learn about Greek Mythology!
